egregore (EH-gri-gohr) - n., (occult) an autonomous psychic entity that is composed of, and influences, the thoughts of a group of people.
In different esoteric traditions, this can be the collective mind of a community or an independent entity arising out of one. In the Greek translation of the apocryphal Book of Enoch, it's the name (from Ancient Greek egrēgoros, wakeful) used for angelic beings called "watchers" in the Aramaic original.
